li, A-IH all ' ririi 1:3 lill' IZ EZ l ......J .. Beaver Tales 1960 COLL , ILLIN The endemic Life Blackburn is a coeducational liberal arts college lo- cated in the heart of the midwest. To get back to nature in the Thoreau fashion, all a student has to do is walk clown a dusty gravel road which leads to a peaceful country setting. Even while on the campus it is possible to hear the crow of a rooster, the bray of a donkey, and the disgruntled call of a cow. In the fall he can study undemeath an aging tree and aclniire the beauty of the autumn colors as he occasionally brushes an un- wanted leaf off the pages of his book. In the winter he can slip and slide across Blackburnis winter wonder- land over to the refuge of the college library, quiet ex- cept for the inconsiclerate banging of the radiator pipes. In the spring he can gather up his books, find a quiet spot in the sun, and-if unlucky-combine study with being burned to a crisp. But regardless of the season or the setting, he pursues higher learning-sometimes at a discouraging dog trot. sometimes with the enthusiasm of a high-spirited colt. This pursuit tukcs many different mules and runs into many obstacles. Anyone likcning thc pursuit ol' higher lC2ll'llil1g to an obstacle course woulclrft bc far wrong i11 his analogy. Pcrhzlps thc biggest obstacle is that is Father Time runs faster than most students. And stu- dents often find that they must juggle as they run. They juggle study with work, and, when they are fairly adept ut that, they try juggling study and work with play. fBut only when they think no one is watching, and usually with the air of mz1rtyrs.j And in this manner, in the freshman year, students hcgin traveling the well-worn path to the diploma, 21 path not made smoother by the fact that hundreds have taken it before. Students get their first inkling that it isn't going to be easy when they try to get their class cards from the bookstore for the first time, getting their .gr .,-9' XS M toes stepped on in the rush, and arriving to their first class late, limping-but victorious. It doesn't take long to discover, either, that term papers not only don't grow on Blackburn bushes, but also aren't created in an even- inff. lAlthouUh orchids should be awarded to all those D D who faithfully cling to the belief-throughout four .... A new-:Mes . --1,azfffzr.mwsHsz1ewH M. .. eww 'iw years-that it is best to compose a paper in the stretch between midnight and dawn.j It is also discovered early-but not always learned permanently-that the material of a semester can't be covered in the hours preceeding a final examination. Shocking, but sad, are other realizations that are stum- bled upon along the way. Math formulas aren't assimi- lated easily in the den, while the math student drinks coffee and discusses-math? Shelley and Byron don't have quite the same impact against a background of rock and roll. And social science students are only fool- ing themselves if they think they're doing research at the Marvel Theater. But the learning process always goes ong the pursuit is ever continued. Somewhere, sometime, the biggest dis- covery is made-that what has been learned is nothing in comparison to all that is left to be learned. The goal is reached when the student realizes, as he clutches his diploma, that he has not reached the ultimate - that he is not at the end, but at the beginning.

Not only do the students do a major part of the upkeep of the college, but the supervision of the work is delegated to a group of twelve students who compose the work committee. Each mem- ber of the committee is responsible for the performance of the work in his or her area, and the committee as a whole sees that the entire work program runs smoothly. Each spring a number of students are chosen to at- tend worl: school by a selective process involving both the student body and the Faculty. After passing a writ- f Tony checks the baking.

The final selection of a new work com- mittee is made by the old members. This year's work managers were Ann Kremer and Don Ralcy. Their job required not only skill and tact, but also an infinite amount of patience. They were re- sponsible for scheduling regular work, Sunday work, and special work weeks. They listened to complaints by the hundreds, and tried, by talking to the various members of the committee and their adviser, Dr. Hood, to keep each person happy with his work.

He worked closely with Mr. Lernaster and Mr. Hemphill to see that the construction of new buildings and rnaintenace of old buildings ran smoothly. Gerry Olson and Dave Bearden, janitress and janitor heads, saw that the buildings were kept clean. After be- ing burned out of their janitor shop in Robertson base- ment, they moved to Stoddard basement and set up headquarters. Besides overseeing regular work, they were oftentimes the grim taskmasters over students with workfine time. Seeing to it that meals were prepared and served and that the kitchen was cleaned up were the multiple tasks of Tony Hoover, kitchen head, and Elaine Seeley, din- ing hall head, together with their respective co-workers, Nlnrge explains the duties to one of her desk girls. 5 ,Q '91 'FX Checking screens is one of Doris spring chores.

Working closely with the members of the faculty and their student assistants was part of Marge Roloff's job as desk head. In aclclition, she and her desk girls were responsible for seeing that women students followed the desk rules set up by the house councils and the faculty. The Vlfork Cominittee holds group meetings once a week. The college laundry ran smoothly under the direc- tion of Peggy Klaus, laundry head. The laundry oper- ates for the convenience of the students, and also for the dining hall and other departments of the College. John Hughes held a two-fold position on the Work Committee. He oversaw the running of the bookstore and saw that the pick-up and delivery of mail was done efficiently.

It budgets and distributes the Student Ac- tivity Fund and supervises the creation or disbandment of campus organizations. The Council shares the res- sponsihility for the formulation of legislation with the faculty. The purpose of the Student Council is not necessarily to change, but rather to improve existing conditions. With this purpose, the Council must sometimes sit in judgement of an individual or group, and this function is performed as objectively as is possible. There are eleven members on the Student Council, three of whom are chosen in the fall, and eight in the spring. They were Ann Kremer, presidentg Drew Thurs- ton, vice presidentg Dee Forneris, recording secretaryg Sandy Eden, corresponding secretaryg Jay Bland, treas- urerg Bill Savicky, Cecil Henry, Sara Corpening, Cary Craigmiles, John Hughes, and Chuck Cummins. When Drew graduated in January, Jack Thornton replaced him on the Council. --e ,44- W Resident eo-imselors discuss ways of helping new stueiems, President Counselors At the end of each school year, resident counselors are chosen for the following year. These resident coun- selors meet with their advisor two or three times before they begin their jobs and at various times throughout the school year. They discuss ways in which problems of former times have been met and how they might cope with any problems that might arise in the future. X'Vhen the new students arrive in the fall, each resident counselor is ready to help them in any way possible. The resident counselor is a very important person in the life of a freshman girl, especially in those first few weeks at Blackburn when she is unfamiliar with all the rules and regulations that govern the campus. Regular meetings are held once a week at first, but as the year progresses the number is diminished. These meetings are often held informally with the girls sitting around on the floor, eating, and carefully listening to what the counselor tells them. She is always answering ques- tions, giving adviee, and being a friend interested in seeing that new students start out all right at B. U. The seven girls who served as resident counselors this year were Lu Bushing, Marge Roloff, Joanne Ked- rok, Marcia Zadel, Diane Hoof, Marge Rinehart, and Sandy Eden.

One member is elected from each wing to re- present that wing at the House Council meetings. The members of the House Council have the job of enforc- ing the social and house rules in their respective dormi- tories. Aside from just enforcing rules, the House Coun- cil also suggests changes and corrections in the rules, discusses ways to improve the facilities and appearance of the dorm, and plans social functions. Prior to this year, all men of the campus were gov- erencd hy the Men's House Council, which was formed upon the completion of Butler Hall in 1928. This year, with the completion of Graham Hall, the Men's House Council split into two bodies, the Butler House Coun- eil, and the Graham-Dawes House Council. Both of the new units follows the rules and regulations of the older body very closely.

The first residents of Graham Hall :md the men of Dawes elected Don Rziley as president of the House Council, Al Winsloxv as vice-president, and Iohn Nichols as secretary-treasurer. Other members were Roy McLeod, Bob I-lnrpole, and Dan Racleeki. Dick Bruins served as presiclent of Butler 1-louse Coun- cil until the end of the first grading period in Novem- ber, when a new Council was elected. Ken Jzunsa took over as president, Larry Niece as vice-president, and Larry Ekstrom :is secretary-treasurer.

Social This is the girl chase boy angle. The Social Committee exercised its ingenuity to pro- vide ns with new dance decorations. Spring brings picnics at the lake. From the picnic on McKinley House lawn to the Bookworm Bull, the social committee is re- sponsible for the social life on C2'llI'lPLlS. This group 111e4'ts twice il inonth with its aclviscr, Mrs. ZlllllllCI'l'll2lllll, to plan and arrange an ac- tivity for each free Saturclay night of the school year. In aclclition, they spend many hours bring- ing their plans to fl'LllIlOl1. This year, the co-chairmen of the Social Com- mittee were Rich Burlcharcl and Dee Forneris. The other officers were I-Ielen Smith, secretaryg Billie -Ioan Thornton, corresponding secretnryg and Daphine Holmes, treasurer. Among the fall activities were several parties.

Both the Roman Togo Party, complete with costumes, cushions on the floor, and fresh fruit, and the Come as You Are party were held in Butler Basement. And, of course, there was the annual Sadie Hawkins Dance with its usual girl catch boy angle and prizes for the best costumes. On other Saturday nights movies were shown, or there was free dancing in the Den. The four most carefully planned evenings of the year were the evenings of the formal dances. For the Fall formal, Dawes Gym was transformed into 21 blue w on d e rl 21I1Cl, carrying out the theme of Lavender Bluef' The week before Christmas everyone was invited to dance in the Allison Room of the Sheraton-Black burn. With the beautiful green and silver decorations and huge Christmzrs tree, it was hard to realize that just a few hours before, this had been the dining room. The dining hull was also the setting for the Valentine Formal held on February 13. The theme, My Funny Valentine, was carried out in the colors of red and white. At 10:00 Pat Sands and Howard Bengele were crowned Queen and King. Their ZilLCflClZl'11lS were Ruth Rabe, Margaret Slappey, Jan Worclcll, Marshall Kaisner, Steve Orton, and Don Sergeant.

Dave Schultz, senior class president, presented the traditional Lamp of Learning to Ann Howard, junior class president. The program was concluded with the presentation by the senior class of a silver tea service to the College. Homecoming The day after Thanksgiving, faces which were strange to the freshmen, but familiar to upperclassmen and fac- ulty, began to filter across campus. By Saturday there were as many alumni as students on campus. The occa- sion? Homecoming, of course! The weekend officially began at noon on Saturday. First on the agenda was the alumni-,I.V. game, giving everyone a chance to see the basketball stars of former years. True to expectations, the alumni won. Then came the homecoming game, the first game of the season. Our opponents were the SIU Salulcis of Alton. At half-time, Diane Hoof, student marshal, crowned the Homecoming Queen, Joanne Kedrok. The members of her court were Carole Coch- ran, Sue Cox, Lana Lugtigheid, and Marcia Zadel. As usual, all the dorms were decorated, showing hours of work on the part of homecoming committees. This year, with Graham's opening, five, instead of four, dorms entered the competitiong and the new entry was awarded the trophy by the Homecoming Queen.

As the game resumed, the Beavers were ahead. But the fourth quarter .ended in a tie. The Salukies man- aged to keep the hall during most of the overtime, thus winning the game, 65-60. Following the game, a reception was held in Jones Parlor, where there were reunions for the classes of l939g 1949, Choth A.A. and A.B.D5 and 1954. The two new buildings on Lhe Campus, Olin and Graham, and the Language Lab, were open for visitors both after the game and again on Sunday afternoon. The theme of the hanquet and dance was More Meinoriesfi During the dance Joanne was presented with a bouquet of roses, after which she chose the number for the Queenis Dance, Chances Are. Sunday morning began with a reunion breakfast for the class of 1939 in the Private Dining Room and cafe- teria-slyle breakfast for the other early birds. The speaker at Chapel was a recent Blackburn graduate, Rev. Burt ly. Lancaster. The final meal of the weekend was a lnuffet-style dinner for all those who had not al- ready departed. By evening the campus had returned to its usual 350 laces. Alumni registered oluring the lfro11'zeco1ni1'Lg game Beaver Tales The Beaver Tales Staff niet many times during the year to solve the problems of producing a year- book. VVith the aid of their advisor, Miss Mary Cosner, and the other members of the staff, dozens of editorial decisions were made by the editorsg Marge Rinehart and Larry Niecc. Their two assist- ants, Joanne Kcclrok and Dick Bruins, not only spent hours on pictures and layout, but also in learn- ing the ropes so they could take over next year. The two new members of the staff, Lisa Smith and lack Downing, were assigned the difficult job of being copy editors. Other members of the staff were Ann Howard, business managerg Dan Radecki, who contributed the art workg and Jack Thornton and Chuck Bcetz, photographers. The staff visitecl the Roplaey ET1gl'6'lVl1'Lg Com-pcmy to see photo plates being made. The copy editors, the pltotogmplters :mol Dan discuss the layout scheme. Howie's primary job was selling twls 'Burnian The first aim of the Berman is that of re- porting the news to the students. The other, equal in importance but not so obviously in mind and intent, is that of preserving a record of Burnian- ismsv for both the students and, of course, the Archives. The bulk of the responsibility for the paper, with the exception of a few faithful reporters, lies in the hands of two managers and five editors. Without. the ads, the paper would be nonexistent, and it is to the business manager, Pat Benedict, that we owe the paper's linaneial solvency. Dee Forneris, circulation manager, was responsible for the copies getting to the students every other Saturday. Handling the more creative angles of the paper were the editors. The position of copy editor, newly created this year, was held by Herman Haase. Ken Rust, covering both inter-collegiate and intramural contests, acted as sports editor. The feature editor, Karen Chuttke, provided the lighter side of campus aspects, and Sandy Eden, in the capacity of news editor, covered all the latest events.

Players The Blackburn Players offer stimulation in thea tre and drama experience to the students. The presentation for the first semester of 1959-60 was 'lThe Sea Gull by Anton Chckhov. Featured in this play were Bill lVIcKenzic, Lisa Smith, Bill Bruins, Ann Grimwoocl, Charlie Hanson, Chester Hedgepeth, Marilyn Kabbe, Terry Lantz, Irene Kossoy, and Bruce Barnwell. A playreacling in the beginning of the first semes- ter offered an introduction to Players for the new students.

In- stead of giving the usual individual numbers, the Choir gave selections from opercttns and musical comedies. Because of these interesting activities, the Choir does much to enrich the Cuuipus life of the student body. The Choir lines up for the processiomzl. 35 1 J Clubs t The several clubs at Blackburn are so varied in activi- ties that any student is almost certain to find at least one that will include one of his interests. The Art club was open to students interested in learn- ing new techniques. The members participated in dem- onstrations and made trips to St. Louis for art shows and movies. The officers this year were Larry Bruns, presiclentg Mary Alice Huff, vice-presidentg and Karen Chuttke, secretary. The purpose of the Chemistry club was to encourage an interest in science. Headed by Rich Treptow, presi- clentg Rolf Reimer, vice-presidentg und Jane Zucker, secretary-treasurer, they took field trips, and presented programs featuring guest speakers. Blaekburn's one Greek Letter club, the Philokalo- gathon Society or Phi Kappa Alpha, held student panel discussions on various topics. The PKA was headed by a committee of four eltairnlenz Al Winslow, Dick Bruins, Chuck Hill, and Sandy Eden. The Economics club met to discuss economic prob- lems from the local to the national level. In the spring they held a banquet. honoring the graduating seniors. This yearls officers were Drew Tliurston, president, Dick Bruins, vice-president, and Bill lVIcKenzie, secretary- treasurer. The Political Activities elub is 21 merger of the Young Republicans and Young Democrats. Their purpose is to encourage an interest in politics. Although the clubs often met separately and did have their own officers, they sometimes had joint meetings in which the two presidents acted as eo-chairmen. The officers of the Y otrng Republicans were Dave Anderson, president, Don lflellni, vice-presidentg and Sally Anderson, secretary. Heading the Y ouug Democrats were Cecil Henry, presi- dentg Al Winslow, vice-presidentg and Jean Bloom, see- retary-treasurer. The purpose of the Photography club was to instruct students interested in learning how to take and develop pictures.

Carol Holmberg, president, along with Beverly Klaus, secretaryg and Rayne Porter, treasurer, led the activities of the Home Economics club. Among these activities were cookie sales and demonstrations of various kinds. Their meetings were open to all interested students. Students interested in writing and in literary criticism made up the Literary club. Their main project for the year was the publication of the Scrollg however, they also had speakers and discussions. The officers for this year were Beth Born, presidentg Davies Burton, vice- presidentg and Dorothy Linberg, secretary-treasurer. A devoted group of enthusiasts enjoyed bi-monthly meetings of the Square Dance club. The group was headed by a cabinet of four members: Diane Hoof, Dale Dickinson, Gloria Dickmcyer, and Bruce Barnwell. Meinbership in the Men's Glee club is based on com- petition. As do all Blackburn activities, it has a busy schedule, singing for assemblies, Class Day, and local clubs. Occasionally the group is invited out of town to sing.

LE!llQQ'l'IHQll'S Club The L-C1lCI'IllCl1,S club, which was organized dur- ing the year 1958-1959, was continued in 1959-1960 with eleven returning members plus a large group of prospective members. To be a member of the Lettermen's club, one must hold a major award in a varsity sport and go through the week long initia- Lion process. The club meets once a month or less as the presiclcm sees fit. One of the functions of the club is to sell refreshments at the basketball games. Nominations for officers were made at the first meeting of the year. Those chosen were Drew Thurston, presiclentg l'Vnlly Buckner, vice-presidentg Charlie Giles, SCC1'etZu'y-treZlsLlI'eI'. Other returning lcttcrmen were Dale Dickinson, John Hughes, Jay Bland, Charles Cummins, Gary Craigmiles, Roy McLeod, Cecil St. George Henry, and Bernard Mitchell. The faculty sponsor is Coach Gray. Varsit Basketball As the spectators of the Blackburn basketball games will testify, the score-card does not always give an ac- curate picture of the game. The Beavers did lose many games, but most of them were heartbreakers, lost by a very slim margin, The probable reason for the teamis low number of victories was inexperience. Coach Gray was working with five returning lettermen and six freshmen. The depth ol' the team was provided by the returning players, and the enthusiasm was increased a greal deal by the freshmen. Ed Alepra, 6'3 , did more than his share of rebound- ing, and also added many points to our scores. I-lis height was very valuable to the Beavers. Gary Craig- miles was also another rebounder, and was very hard to stop, at his height of li'2 . John Hughes at 6'1 im- proved a great deal in his shooting ability, and should do much to help the squad next season. The other two returning men, Chuck Cummins at 5'7 , and 5i9'5 Jay Bland, provided a large share of the team's speed and defensive play. Cheerleaders A vital part of any basketball season is the cheer- leading squad. This spirited group of individuals main- tained its enthusiasm and verve throughout a long and disappointing season. Returning members of the squad included Marcia Higginson, Judi Windsor, Wally Buckner, Larry Bruns, and Captain Billie jean Thornton. Rich Samonte was the only new addition to the group. .Wit : ,.-'PA V y ,ll M ul 2 A ' , J, H 1 3 ., l 1 A .. , ,,,,l.,, .f ,,, M.. . i lf lay Bland Marshall Kaisner Gary Craigmiles Ed Alepra Rick Wiggall Lyn Butler Steve Schroeder Bill Jackman Chuck Cummins Don Szlrgczlnl John Hughes Blackburn SIU, Alton l5l2lClilJl1l'll - - Cloncorclin, Springfield Blzickburn - - Rolla School of Mines Blackburn - - M cKcncl rec BlilClilJlll'l1 - - Lincoln liiblc Institute lilackburn - - Greenville Blackburn Aurora - Blzxcklmm - - Lincoln Bible Institute ,lilZ1ClClJlll'll - - Concorclia, Sl.

QQ, X Hopes for coming seasons lie in the freshman talent added to the squad this year. Bill Jackman, at 6'2',, showed great promise as a sharp freshman ball-handler, and his speed will be useful in the years to come. 5,llM,' Marshall Kaisner displayed his talent as ll good steady ballplayer. Another freshman who looked good on the court was Don Sargeant, who stands 6'2 tall. Lyn But- ler, ffllyj' tall, was also a freshman who showed en- thusiasm ancl spirit. Steve Schroeder, 6'5 , and Rich Wiggall, 6'3 , will provide good rebounding and shoot- ing for the Beavers as they get more experience. The team was 21 very scrappy outfit, and the prospects for next year's season look very good, because these boys never gave up, even when they received an abundance of had breaks. .ia ia, l rrrr t t - s 9 ..f Q Bw 'Wally uses his head. iiarsity ioeeer Soccer this year at Blackburn assumed major import- ance in our athletic program. There were only two home games, but speclfators were numerous at each of them. In the first of the six games ol' the season, Greenville beat us narrowly by a score of I-O. The Blackburn squad then went to Park College near Kansas City, where it playecl one of its better games. Alter taking the lead, we lost by a score of 2-1. In our first game with Macllur- ray at Jacksonville, we were beaten 5-2, but in a return match we playecl with great enthusiasm and were able to place them on the short end of the same score. The last game of the season against Eastern Illinois saw us victorious as we won fl'-3. Playing on this year's soccer team were Dave Bearden, Wally Buckner, John Darr, Dale Dickenson, Charles Giles, Cecil I-lenry, john Hughes, Tom Lewis, Roy Mc- Leod, Hans Proft, Ken Rust, Robert Summers, Ron Trimmer, Elliot l'Vhitlow, John Bobula, Bernie Mitchell, Bob Nelson, John Woodruff, Clark Trapp, Terry Taff, Doug Regan, George Euring, Terry Lanlz, Charles Beetz, Rolf Renner, Mike Polosky, and Ron Langner.

Despite this loss, the sea- son started well under the able leadership of Mr. Neu- bauer. The team worked very diligently, but had a poor season. All of the meets were lost, often by only two or three points. This did not discourage the cindermen, however, for they made a good showing even when the odds were against them. It was just that the 'ilittle extra which makes a championship team was lacking. Three of the seasonas four meets were held at Green- villeis high school athletic field. The last, and most im- portant contest, was the Prairie College Conference com- petition, with Blackburn, Principia, Rose Polytechnic In- stitute, Greenville, and Illinois participating. Team members included John Darr, Jack Eisenbarth, Art Solberg, Roy McLeod, Cecil Henry, Drew Thurston, Dale Dickinson, Ed Alepra, John Woodruff, Spencer Maxcy, Charlie Giles, Les Totsch, Paul Dixon, Ed Young, and John Hughes. olz-iz perfeets his form..

The Beavers defeated Illinois College, Concordia-Springfield, McKendree, and Green- ville, and lost two matches to Principia and one each to Greenville and Concordia-Springfield. Don Wallcn was top man with 21 three and five sea- sonal recorcl. Following Don, in the order of play, were Jay Bland with four and four, Chuck Cummins with two and six, Fred Rohatsch with three :md five, and Dennis Newman, n freslnnan last year, with five and three. The doubles combination of Bland and Cummins finished with Z1 four and four record, while the Rohatseh- Wlallen team finished with two and five.

W i li, ,H A ewgvwwiwwe' lVlen's Intramural ports The 11161138 intramural program is enjoyed by nearly every eligible person on campus. It provides the oppor- tunity for everyone to participate in the sports of his choice, either individually or as a member of a team which is evenly matched against other teams, The intra- mural program is directed by representatives elected by each wing, and this Board of Governors handles the scheduling and supervision of all contests. Recognition is given to the outstanding players at the end of the year, and a plaque is inscribed with the name of the team which has received the largest number of points throughout the year. Also, the men who have shown the best qualities of sportsmanship and fair play are given recognition, so emphasis is placed upon other things than just winning. Last year, Dawes had the team accumulating the most points, and Third South was the runner-up. Last spring, softball was the most popular sport, and Dawes won out over First Floor for the softball cham- pionship. The intramural season this fall started off with touch football, although the sport sometimes seems to approach something more than just touching the other team. In this season, Dawes edged First Graham out of the championship by one game. When competing in the archery contest, Dawes also was the victorious team, being undefeated, with First Floor coming up second. Ron Niece had the highest number of total points, with Bill McKenzie runner-up. Bill and Ron tied for the honor of having the highest individual score. The volleyball contest was also held in the late fall. Dawes Won this contest, again undefeated, and there was a four-way tie for second place among Lower Gra- ham, Second North, Third South, and First Floor. The individual sport given the most prominence was the Turkey Trot, which was run on Thanksgiving morn- ing, a very cold one, and was won by Paul Dixon, fol- lowed by John Nichols. The IM program is unique in that it affords oven the less skillful athletes a chance to compete with others whose skill is evenly matched with their own. For this reason, the program is one of our most popular campus activities. was asf klilf F ' ll' E 5 ,, 5 .5553 fb., 7 5' S , ff :. ff HFQ 9 W , x 6 , xl Q ww! x -ggi mi bf ' mf E The womenls intraimlral athletic program begins each September with a field hockey tournament between the two women's clormitories. Keen competition and team spirit add much to the enjoyment of the sport for both the participants and observers. Stoddard's team came through this year to win back the championship they had last year lost to Jones. The Hen Trot seems to be earning itself 21 place beside the Turkey Trot as at Blackburn Thanksgiving tradition. Eight-girl teams from the two dorms ignored the cold weather to compete in this relay race. This year the trophy was moved from Stoddard to Jones. Another fall sport was tennis, played on a singles elimination system. Wilfriede Angeli took first place. i H0Il1Bll'S Intraimural ports -i 1.. i l F? -I JT. rl. -,ui H fiaf' ' FO! Two very popular winter sports were volleyball and basketball, played in the gym. The competition was be- tween floorsg sometimes two floors combining to form one team. The tough-to-beat team from Jones Ist came out on top in volleyball. The competition in basketball was very stiff. Neither of the Jones teams seemed willing to lose the championship, but finally Jones lst had to concede defeat to Jones 2nd and 3rcl. t , -as aw? Badminton and table tennis tournaments were not held s- 1 -f m3.,.'-4. 4 l until the second semester. Last year Marcia Higginson won first place in badminton and Carolyn Osborn took top place in table tennis. Of course the favorite spring sport was baseball. Again teams were organized by floors. The l959 winners were the girls from Stoddard lst. Coed ports One of Blackburn's favorite pastimes is watch- ing or participating in one of the co-ed games held on Sunday afternoon in Dawes. Both a volleyball and a badminton tournament are held each year. Volleyball is the more popular of the two sports. Strong competition and good sportsmanship added much to the enjoyment of the games. Dee Forneris' team worked hard to win the championship. A smaller group are badminton enthusiasts. The Chuck Cummins-Marcia Higginson combination was indeed a difficult one to beat and they emerged on top in this tournament. -1 100 The Faculty President of the College Our president, Dr. Robert P.
